The following is a detailed description of some embodiments of this application in connection with the accompanying drawings. In no conflicting situations, the embodiments and features within the embodiments described below can be combined with each other.

With the rapid development of electronic technology, terminal devices such as mobile phones, tablets, and AR glasses have won the favor of a large number of users, and have brought about the vigorous development of the technology, market and ecology of information applications such as social media, news forums, podcast broadcasts, and chat tools. In the related technologies, users can often install translation software on terminal devices to translate the content of various information applications, or use the basic translation functions built into some applications for translation. However, since some applications do not have a built-in basic translation function, or the built-in basic translation function is single in function or weak in translation quality, it cannot meet the diverse translation needs of users, such as a plurality of languages, technical terms, voice-to-text conversion, and voice-to-voice conversion.

Therefore, users are often accustomed to using traditional translation software for translation, which also leads to the need for users to constantly switch between software display interfaces, and copy and paste the information in the translation software into the target application through the clipboard. This not only reduces the translation efficiency but also brings a lot of inconvenience. For example, in scenarios such as business exhibitions and academic conferences, participants are likely to come from all over the world and have different preferences for using applications such as social software and conference software. During the online communication after users add the other sides' contact information, they often need to use a certain translation software to convert the source language into the target language, and then copy and paste the target language into different application software. This is not only cumbersome to operate and inefficient in communication, but also prone to errors. Obviously, the translation efficiency of current electronic devices is relatively low. Specifically, the main reasons for the relatively low translation efficiency include the following aspects:

First, when users use different information application software such as social media, news forums, podcast broadcasts, and chat tools, since they need to operate a certain translation software to obtain translation results, they have to constantly switch between the interfaces of the application software and the translation software, and use the clipboard to copy and paste. This reduces the translation efficiency of the electronic device.

Second, a small number of information application software have built-in translation functions. However, on the one hand, among various information application software where users may have translation needs, such as video calls, chat tools, online forums, or social media, the proportion of information application software with built-in translation functions is relatively limited. When it is necessary to contact communication partners using other information application software without translation functions, traditional translation software still needs to be used for translation. On the other hand, the translation functions of different information application software often vary in usage methods. Therefore, the translation efficiency of electronic devices remains limited.

Third, traditional translation software, especially those on mobile phones, are operated entirely through the touch screen, buttons of the terminal device or a certain peripheral device. As a result, the human-machine interaction interface is easily hijacked by disguised viruses, leading to problems such as being secretly recorded and having the bandwidth occupied. This not only reduces the security of the device but also decreases the stability and smoothness of the system operation, thus lowering the translation efficiency of the electronic device.

Fourth, traditional translation software, especially that on translators, often integrates the translation system into a single translator or does not allow users to freely switch translation service providers. However, different translation software vendors have varying levels of translation capabilities for different languages and professional fields. To ensure high - quality translation, especially in scenarios such as international exhibitions where on - site translation services in a plurality of languages are required, users often need to test, select, and switch between a plurality of translation software. This not only lacks flexibility but also reduces the translation efficiency of electronic devices. Another example is that in some professional translation scenarios, when users need customized translation services such as customizing glossaries and building and training translation agents, traditional translation software has difficulty in providing support, which limits the translation efficiency of electronic devices.

Fifth, traditional translators often require the integration of electronic components such as network communication modules, audio collection modules, and computility units in the device. On the one hand, this makes the hardware cost of the translator relatively high and the device larger in size. On the other hand, it also places higher requirements on the supporting power supply of the translator, further increasing the hardware cost of translators and size of the device. In particular, with the trend of miniaturization of electronic devices, the volume of terminal devices is often limited, and their supporting power supplies also need to be miniaturized. This reduces the endurance of devices such as translators, causing users to sometimes need to suspend the current translation task for charging, which lowers the translation efficiency of electronic devices.

Sixth, when the audio collection task is executed by a traditional external translator, frequent and large-volume communication between the terminal device and the external translator is required, which not only occupies the communication bandwidth of both the terminal device and the external translator but also makes the external translator have higher requirements for electronic components such as the power supply and communication module. Under the same cost expenditure, this reduces the translation efficiency of the electronic device.

The translation method based on an AI business card provided in an embodiment of this application can also be implemented in the form of a computer program; this computer program can run on the terminal device as shown in.

7 FIG. 7 FIG. 7 FIG. A translation method based on an AI business card is provided in an embodiment of this application. The translation method based on an AI business card can be applied to a terminal device. Please refer to,is a schematic flowchart of a translation method based on an AI business card provided in an embodiment of this application. As shown in, the method includes the following steps.

101 In step, receive first instruction information sent by an AI business card.

Wherein the AI business card can be attached to the terminal device; the AI business card is provided with a trigger button, and the AI business card can send the first instruction information to the terminal device when the trigger button is triggered. For example, the trigger button can be configured as a toggle button, a sliding button, a temperature-sensing button, a pressure-sensing button, a touch button, a capacitive button, or a virtual button, and no specific limitation is imposed here. For example, the first instruction information may include an audio collection instruction or a translation instruction, and the first instruction information can be sent via NFC, Bluetooth, WIFI, cellular data, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.

In some embodiments, the AI business card may include a Bluetooth module and an NFC module. Wherein the AI business card can establish an encrypted communication connection with the terminal device through the Bluetooth module, and can send business card information to the terminal device via the NFC module. The business card information includes web links, content information, or log information.

With such an arrangement, in the first aspect, the function of the AI business card is realized by sending content information, avoiding problems such as the difficulty in managing and preserving traditional paper business cards and their lack of environmental friendliness. In the second aspect, the transmission of business card information can be indirectly achieved by sending web links. Thus, on the premise of keeping the hardware cost of the AI business card relatively controllable and its structure simple and compact, it becomes possible for the business card information to include multimedia contents such as photos and portfolios, which can better save the hardware costs of device components such as memory, computility, communication modules, etc. In the third aspect, in some sales management systems, the log information of the business card information may include reading or access records. Employers can confirm the salespersons' customer visit records or itinerary records by reading the log information in the AI business cards equipped by the employed salespersons, and formulate incentive, welfare, management and business strategies in a data-driven manner. In the fourth aspect, when the log information of the business card information includes reading, access or permission records, and the user's AI business card is stolen, the owner of the AI business card can be found by reading the relevant business card information, and the relevant business card information can be used as judicial evidence.

In some embodiments, the first instruction information can also include authentication information. The terminal device can perform authentication based on the authentication information sent by the AI business card; if the authentication result is unsuccessful, the step in response to the first instruction information will not be executed. With such an arrangement, on the one hand, it can control information security risks, prevent hackers from misappropriating the translation service by imitating the first instruction information, and avoid losses to the translation service provider. On the other hand, it can prevent hackers from communicating with the terminal device through forged AI business cards, and then from invading or hijacking relevant servers or terminal devices, thereby enhancing the security of the terminal device.

102 In step, respond to the first instruction information, and collect audio to obtain first audio data.

Wherein the collected audio may include audio data in the terminal device or human voice data in the environment. The audio data in the terminal device may include recording data, broadcast data, or the audio data of one party in a video call, etc. With such an arrangement, on the one hand, since the audio data in the terminal device can be directly collected, the link of "the terminal device plays the audio data and then collects it again through the microphone" is avoided, and others can be prevented from hearing the target audio to be translated. In this way, in occasions where it is inconvenient to play the sound out loud, such as in meetings and business calls, it can also translate the audio data in the voice messages, recording data, video data, etc. sent by the communication partner, taking into account both privacy and translation efficiency. On the other hand, in scenarios such as video calls and broadcasts, if the audio data needs to be played out loud and then collected, the audio quality may be reduced. Directly using the audio data in the terminal device can improve the audio quality of the first audio data, reduce the impact of noise, and thereby improving the translation efficiency of the electronic device.

It can be understood that the first audio data can be collected by the audio collector such as the microphone built in the terminal device, and it can also be collected by devices that can establish a communication connection with the terminal device, such as a wireless microphone, a wireless headset, a wired headset, a VR device, or AR glasses.

Furthermore, the first audio data can include the human voice data of on-site users such as the person who triggers the trigger button and the holder of the terminal device. It can also include the human voice data of a plurality of speakers which can be distinguished and translated by the server according to characteristic data such as the speaker's voiceprint or the source of the audio data.

103 In step, send the first audio data to a server.

Wherein the server is used to translate the first audio data to obtain a translation result, and send the translation result to the terminal device.

In some embodiments, the translation result may include first text data or second audio data. When a plurality of servers can be involved, for example, the servers may include a first server and a second server; the first server is used to convert the first audio data into first text data, and the second server is used to convert the first audio data or the first text data into second audio data.

In some embodiments, the terminal device can send the first audio data to the first server. Wherein the first server is used to translate the first audio data to obtain the first text data and then send the first text data to the terminal device; the terminal device can send the first text data to the second server; wherein the second server is used to convert the first text data to obtain the second audio data and then send the second audio data to the terminal device.

In some embodiments, the terminal device may send the first audio data to the first server. Wherein the first server is used to translate the first audio data to obtain the first text data and then send the first text data to the terminal device and the second server; the second server is used to convert the first text data to obtain the second audio data and then send the second audio data to the terminal device.

In some embodiments, the terminal device can send the first audio data to the first server and the second server. Wherein the first server is used to translate the first audio data to obtain the first text data and then send the first text data to the terminal device; the second server is used to convert the first audio data to obtain the second audio data and then send the second audio data to the terminal device.

With such an arrangement, a plurality of servers divide the work and complete the translation tasks, thereby enabling a better allocation of translation services and computility resources. This makes it possible to achieve load balancing and an improvement in the translation speed among a plurality of servers or data centers, and the stability and reliability of the overall translation service can be enhanced by using standby servers, and the translation efficiency of the electronic device is improved .

In some embodiments, the terminal device can also collect the first audio data through other terminal devices and send the first audio data to the server via these other terminal devices, and no specific limitation is made here. For example, the translation method based on an AI business card can also be applied to the video communication scenario. The first user can establish a communication connection between the first terminal device and the second terminal device of the second user. When the first user needs to speak, he/she can trigger the trigger button of the first AI business card, thus sending the first instruction information to the first terminal device. The first terminal device receives and responds to the first instruction information, collects the first audio data of the first user, and sends the first audio data to the server. Wherein the server can be used to translate the first audio data to obtain the translation result, and send the translation result to the first terminal device and/or the second terminal device. The first terminal device and/or the second terminal device receive the translation result and output the translation result through the application currently running on each device. With such an arrangement, the second terminal device is equivalent to using the first terminal device to collect audio to obtain the first audio data, using the first terminal device to send the first audio data to the server, and then obtaining and receiving the translation result through the server, thereby outputting the translation result through the application currently running on the second terminal device. With such an arrangement, it can reduce the complexity of the communication link, decrease the number of translation services and audio collections, save communication bandwidth and the computility resources of the server, enhance the stability and smoothness of the overall translation system, and improve the translation efficiency of the electronic device.

104 In step, receive the translation result and output the translation result through a currently running application.

In some embodiments, the translation result may include first text data and/or second audio data. For example, the first text data can be displayed on the display interface of the currently running application in the terminal device; and/or the second audio data can be played through the currently running application. With such an arrangement, users can quickly obtain or apply the translation result, thus improving the translation efficiency of the electronic device.

It can be understood that the second audio data can be played through the loudspeaker built in the terminal device. It can also be played through devices that can establish a communication connection with the terminal device, such as a Bluetooth speaker, a Bluetooth headset, a wired headset, a bone conduction headset, a VR device, or AR glasses.

In some embodiments, the terminal device may be installed with a first application and a second application. Wherein the terminal device can establish a communication connection with the AI business card through the first application. The first application can be regarded as an application developed by the AI business card manufacturer. The second application is any other application except the first application. The second application can be regarded as an application other than the one developed by the manufacturer itself.

In some embodiments, if the application running in the foreground of the terminal device is the first application, then the translation result is output through the first application; or, if the application running in the foreground of the terminal device is the second application, then the translation result is output through the second application, and the first application runs in the background of the terminal device.

With such an arrangement, by keeping the first application in the background and directly outputting the translation result through the second application, users can quickly obtain or apply the translation result, which improves the translation efficiency of the electronic device. Specifically, the first application can be configured as an application capable of implementing a translation function or providing a translation service, and the second application can be configured as any other application except the first application; for example, it can be one of the information applications such as social media, news forums, podcast broadcasts, and chat tools, or it can also be an information application involving text content such as programming software and browsers. For example, the first application can be kept in the background, and any chat tool application different from the first application can be running in the foreground of the user's terminal device, and this chat tool application can be understood as the second application. Users can use the first application to obtain the translation result and directly output the translation result in the information sending box of the currently running chat tool interface, thus avoiding cumbersome operations such as "copying the translation result from the translation software and pasting it into the interface of the second application such as the chat tool", and realizing the function of cross-application translation.

In some embodiments, if the application running in the foreground of the terminal device is the second application and the operating system of the terminal device is Android, the first application can be configured to run in the form of a floating window, picture-in-picture, the background, or a notification; if the application running in the foreground of the terminal device is the second application and the operating system of the terminal device is iOS, the first application can be configured to run in the form of a floating window or picture-in-picture.

With such an arrangement, not only can the first application be kept in the background and the translation result be directly output through the second application, enabling users to quickly obtain or apply the translation result and improving the translation efficiency of the electronic device, but also the first application can be kept in the background in a legal manner. This avoids excessive acquisition of user permissions or accidental deletion by the operating system, which could lead to the interruption of the translation service. As a result, it enhances the translation convenience and efficiency of the terminal device.

In some embodiments, the AI business card sends the second instruction information to the terminal device when the trigger button is triggered again or the trigger state is released. Wherein the terminal device can be used to receive the second instruction information sent by the AI business card; the terminal device responds to the second instruction information and stops to collect audio. With such an arrangement, by sending the second instruction information to the terminal device, the audio collection is stopped promptly, thus enabling the translation function to be stopped promptly, the server to be notified promptly, and the idle computing resources to be fully released, the security, stability and smoothness of the system to be enhanced, and further improving the translation efficiency of the electronic device.

Background programs usually do not have the permission to directly operate the interfaces of foreground applications. However, the clipboard, as a public data storage area, provides a relatively secure way for data exchange, allowing programs to copy and paste data with the user's authorization. That is, by uniformly saving the first text data to the clipboard of the terminal device, it can prevent the first application from directly operating the relevant interfaces of the second application, which improves the security and stability of the device's operating system and enhances the translation efficiency of the electronic device.

It can be further understood that when using the clipboard for data input, users can clearly know the source of the data. Users can actively choose whether to copy the data generated by the background program to the clipboard and decide when to paste it into the foreground application, thereby enhancing their sense of control and autonomy over the data input process. Moreover, if the background program could directly input data into the foreground application, it might disrupt the user's current operations. For example, if a user is editing an important text in a foreground application and the background program suddenly inserts an irrelevant piece of text, it would disrupt the user's train of thought and reduce work efficiency. By using the clipboard, users can paste the data at an appropriate time, avoiding interference with their current tasks. In addition, with the clipboard method, users can paste and modify the same data in a plurality of applications, which improves user convenience and usage efficiency.

104 b In step, respond to the paste instruction, and send the first text data in the clipboard to the input widget, display widget, or interactive widget of the second application.

Wherein the form of the paste instruction can be an HID code. The HID code is an encoding method based on the communication protocol of the USB standard. Since most terminal devices and operating systems support the USB standard by default, the HID code can be used on a plurality of operating systems without the need to install additional drivers. This makes the first application and the AI business card device have broader applicability and compatibility by using the HID code to paste. They can smoothly execute translation tasks in various operating systems such as Windows, Android, and iOS. Moreover, when the AI business card is used for the first time, there is no need to install more communication drivers in the terminal device. As a result, it reduces the user's learning cost, decreases the capacity and computility consumption of the first application, improves the installation efficiency of the first application and the stability and smoothness of the operation of the terminal device's system, and enhances the translation efficiency.

In some embodiments, the translation result includes the first text data. The ways to output the translation result through the second application can include: save the first text data to the clipboard of the terminal device through the first application; send the first text data to the input widget, display widget, or interactive widget of the second application through the clipboard. For example, the input widget, display widget, or interactive widget can be configured as a text box, a chat box, a text display area, a subtitle area, etc. It can include widgets that can only perform text display functions and/or widgets that can perform text editing functions. It can also be a selected editable area, a text editor, an integrated development environment, etc.

Wherein, before the step of sending the first text data to the input widget, display widget, or interactive widget of the second application through the clipboard, a confirmation pop - up window can be displayed. This is to apply the content in the clipboard after obtaining the user's consent, thereby reducing security risks such as malicious software using the clipboard to input malicious code. Alternatively, the content in the clipboard can be directly applied, improving efficiency.

14 FIG. 14 FIG. An embodiment of this application further provides a translation method based on an AI business card. Please refer to,is a schematic flowchart of a translation method based on an AI business card provided in an embodiment of this application. The translation method based on an AI business card can be applied to an AI business card. Specifically, it can include the following steps.

201 In step, send a first instruction information to a terminal device.

Wherein the AI business card can be attached to the terminal device, the AI business card is provided with a trigger button, and the AI business card sends the first instruction information to the terminal device when the trigger button is triggered; the terminal device responds to the first instruction information, collects audio to obtain first audio data, and sends the first audio data to a server; the server is used to translate the first audio data to obtain a translation result and send the translation result to the terminal device.

202 In step, send a second instruction information to the terminal device.

Wherein the AI business card sends the second instruction information to the terminal device when the trigger button is triggered again or the trigger state is released, the terminal device responds to the second instruction information and stops to collect audio.

It can be understood that the translation method based on the AI business card proposed in this application, on the one hand, realizes the translation function according to the instruction information sent by the AI business card, which can avoid the cumbersome operations and inconveniences of "constantly switching the software display interface and using the clipboard to copy and paste the information in the translation software into the target application ", and improve the translation efficiency of the electronic device. On the other hand, the method enhances the flexibility and controllability of the translation service by invoking the server to execute the translation function, and makes it possible for users to build, train and use translation agents, set up a unified translation glossary, and customize translation services; it also potentially makes users to efficiently combine and use better translation services in various languages, thus improving the translation efficiency of the electronic device. Furthermore, it saves the computing resources of the terminal device and the AI business card by invoking the server to execute the translation function, making the terminal device and the AI business card more lightweight and compact, and enabling the system of the terminal device to run more smoothly. In addition, since the AI business card can be attached to the terminal device, this not only makes the AI business card less likely to be lost, avoiding the risk of being easily lost due to its miniaturization, but also enables users to conveniently operate the translation function with a single-handed grip when using the terminal device such as a mobile phone, thus improving the translation efficiency of the terminal device. Moreover, since the translation result is output through the currently running application after receiving the translation result, it can take into account various scenarios such as the currently running translation software, video calls, chat tools, online forums, or social media. This enables users to obtain or apply the translation result simply and quickly. In particular, it makes it possible to directly output the translation result in the form of subtitles or transcribed speech during a video call, improving the translation efficiency of the electronic device. Additionally, in the related art, when the audio collection task is executed by a traditional external translator, frequent and large-volume communication between the terminal device and the external translator is required, which not only occupies the communication bandwidth of both the terminal device and the external translator but also makes the external translator have higher requirements for electronic components such as the power supply and communication module. Therefore, by invoking the terminal device to execute the audio collection task, the requirements for the components of the AI business card can be reduced. Not only can the volume be reduced by canceling the audio collection module, but also a longer battery life can be obtained, preventing the user from interrupting the translation work frequently due to the need for charging, and improving the translation efficiency of the electronic device. Furthermore, since functions such as audio collection function are controlled through the trigger button of the AI business card, it has higher security, reducing the risk of viruses in the terminal device disguising and hijacking the interfaces related to the translation service for activities such as secretly recording audio and occupying bandwidth, avoiding the decline in the system security and smooth operation of the terminal device, and improving the translation efficiency of the electronic device.
